Please feel free to post any lesson plans / ideas here for The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian.










These are the activities I've done since the start of school. My goal was to get to know the kids, build skills, support Patrick & the election while moving toward Part-Time Indian. I can't take credit for all of this. Use what you want, tweak it for your style, ignore what you don't want. For what it's worth... Here's my stuff. ~~JillyB
